Grilled prawns at a restaurant may sound delightful, but how about catching them in your mouth as the cook throws it at you? This may not be your idea of an intimate dinner but teppanyaki doesn’t claim to be that, instead, the Japanese style of cooking serves as a dinner-show and is truly an entertaining experience.
This unique style of cooking uses an iron griddle to cook food such as prawns, beef, omelette and rice. The word ‘Teppanyaki’ is derived from ‘teppan,’ which means ‘iron plate’ and ‘yaki’ which means grilled.
During its 200 year history teppanyaki cooking has developed into a highly refined style, where the chef entertains patrons using callisthenics including juggling utensils, sophisticated knife skills and the flipping of food across the room and into the mouths of guests (if you can catch).
Teppanyaki is a great way to immerse yourself in another culture. With so many different foods thrown at you (literally), you can experience new flavours without committing to the entire plate.
A laugh for groups, birthdays, farewells and get togethers! Visit Wasabi Teppanyaki Restaurant in Dickson or Shogun Japanese Restaurant to book your Teppanyaki experience today.
